Updated – How to get free Dior birthday gift in-store

(Last seen November 2023)

The elusive Dior Fragrance Birthday Gift has been spotted in the Midwest! A reddit user (from the Kansas City, MO area) recently posted their Dior Fragrance birthday gift, alongside a small birthday haul. 

Link to Reddit post: My small birthday haul

Word on the street is that some Sephora stores have a limited restock of this free birthday gift.  Call your local Sephora stores asap, they may have the Dior birthday gift in stock!

The best way to get the Sephora Dior birthday gift is to call a Sephora store to see if they have the Dior birthday gift in stock.  The birthday gift has limited availability after selling out quickly.  In fact, the Dior birthday gift option was out of stock the day it went live. 

Sephora’s official statement is that “Due to popular demand, Dior is temporarily unavailable online. Please visit your nearest store to see if its available”.  

Sephora has not released any information on when or if the Dior Birthday Gift will be re-stocked or available online again. 

You can redeem a free birthday gift two weeks before or after your birthday or any time during your entire birthday month.
